Hi all,
Dr Patrick Mccarthy (no relation), one of the University guys helping me out with the Fusor recently sent this paper on to me as advice for calculating dose rates.

Might be of some help to anybody looking for dose rates etc. as is seen in posts from time to time. I couldn't find a graph/table for converting neutron energies to dose rates and so on (although Richard has the value for 2.45 MeV neuts in his FAQ) so I had to do some of my own calculations to convert it, much easier to use the table!
Would one of the Admins paste the link for the paper into the FAQ on dose rates? As I said, from my experience it's much easier to calculate with a table like that. The paper is a nice read (though quite terse) too.
Thanks,
Tom
